"Yes, that's true."
"Now that Your Majesty is aware of this concept, I will continue!"
"Hmm, Minister Li, I have a question."
"Your Majesty, please speak freely."
"If I unify the entire world, can I become the emperor of humanity like Emperor Xin?"
Upon hearing this, Li Lin was dumbfounded.
He was just explaining why water makes up so much of the Earth's surface, so why is it that when it comes to the First Emperor, it's about unifying the world?
However, to avoid time inconsistencies in "Investiture of the Gods," he deliberately exaggerated the lifespan of the human emperors.
For example, Emperor Xin claimed that he had lived for over three thousand years.
Could it be that the First Emperor was attracted by this?
Oh, right!
The First Emperor was obsessed with immortality.
If I don't give him any ideas, he might stop listening. Then he might be accused of spreading heresy and be executed in public, which wouldn't be good.
And so.
Li Lin gritted his teeth and continued arguing.
There's no way around it; to cover up one lie, you have to use more lies.
"Yes! Your Majesty, that is indeed the case! As long as Your Majesty unifies all the humans in the Bitter Land during your lifetime, you will be able to become the Emperor of Humanity. However, I advise you not to have such thoughts, otherwise, the Jade Emperor will intervene!"
"Hmph! The Jade Emperor is nothing but a coward who fears the human race so much. What do I have to fear? If I were the supreme ruler of the Three Realms, I certainly wouldn't go to such lengths to guard against the human race. The more they guard against them, the more they fear them! Minister Li, rest assured, I will definitely reunite the human race and prevent them from being wantonly humiliated by these absurd gods!"
The First Emperor was full of confidence, and now he seemed to have found his purpose in life again.
Years ago, when he was thirteen.
His life goal was to conquer the six kingdoms, unify the world, and enable ordinary people to live a good life, free from the suffering of war.
Nowadays.
His life goal is to unify the world, become the human emperor, and lead the human race back to prosperity.
Unfortunately, Li Lin didn't think that way.
After hearing his childish and cheesy words, Li Lin couldn't help but cover his face.
[Oh no, I think I've done something wrong. How could I let His Majesty know how vast the world is? Sigh, it seems the Qin Dynasty will definitely not have a peaceful future. If the East and West were to clash at this time, who knows what kind of sparks would fly. However, I still hope that the Roman Empire can withstand the onslaught for a while, otherwise it would be bad if the First Emperor's army really pushed to the Mediterranean. Then the people of the Qin Dynasty would have to bear heavy wartime labor. Sigh...]
Just as Li Lin was filled with regret.
The First Emperor pondered for a moment, feeling that the man's words didn't quite add up. He said this was the land of suffering.
How did he know that?
If it was a deity who told him, was he intentionally misleading him?
With these questions in mind, the First Emperor continued, "Minister Li, you've said so much, and the content is quite lengthy. You haven't even come of age yet; how did you know all this? Or is it...?"
The First Emperor's face turned cold. "Are you deliberately using these excuses to fob me off? To deceive me?"
